All My Men

[KRS-One]

Woooooooooo!

Where my men at? Real dudes

Where you at? Look

[Hook: KRS-One]

Me is a mon, understand, not a passin trend

Me is a mon, understand, we provide and defend

Me a mon with a plan, my love it never ends

I'm callin - all my men, ALL MY MEN~!

[KRS-One]

All my men that be holdin down they house and they spouse

Men, y'all know what I'm talkin about

Real men, providin for the kids, no doubt

Holla out, 'gwan shout, you the man of the house

Men! In my opinion if we gonna start winnin

F'real, we gotta respect women

Every mister, hug your sister, it's the

Time to support your woman and not diss her

It's the, teacher, overstand

I'm like a preacher, reachin your upper man

Man, many don't understand

How important it is to have a plan

[Hook] - repeat 2X

[KRS-One]

All my men that be holdin they house down, true workin

All my men that be holdin they spouse down, for certain!

You spread love when you drivin around town, not jerkin

You a healer, you take away what's hurtin

Cause if a man can't do what a man plans to do, his purpose

Then a man makes plans with empty hands, he's worthless

He can't even understand the plan

What the second or the first is

Let me verse this or reverse this statistic

We gotta think futuristic

Strategic, logistical and even mystical

We need a new ritual

I'm tired of jumpin over buildings

And havin to stop to hold adult hands like children

C'mon, you can do it, c'mon

And when they get paid then they quickly run along

This ain't just another song

This is that fruit that reveals the right from the wrong

It won't be long here, before the storm's here

And real men are gonna have to be strong

[Hook] - repeat 2X

[KRS-One]

Be a MON, stand on principle

Just be a MON, let God live in you

Just be a MON, walk in the spiritual

Metaphysical, political, lyrical

Just be a MON! Understand you not a passing trend

And this is the end
